Jones says that it has come out today that barely thirty per cent of students are walking to school. Jones says that he can understand why, and that this is a factor in health. Jones says that a new report from the ministry of transport shows that fifty five per cent of students who live close to school (less than a kilometre) are driven when they could walk. Jones says that the PNC say that the number of children being driven to school is reflection of the busy working life of parents rather than laziness.
